fact
Childhood and youth
Evgeny was born in the village of Dzhamku, Solnechny District, Khabarovsk Territory, in November 1982 under the Scorpio zodiac sign. His father is Viktor Plushenko, a native of Ukraine, there is almost no information about maternal relatives, so it is difficult to say for sure about the athlete's nationality. Together with the boy, Plushenko's sister Elena was brought up in the family.
In the Khabarovsk Territory, his parents participated in the construction of the BAM. However, the harsh Siberian climate had a detrimental effect on the child's health and once led to bilateral pneumonia, which forced the family to move to Volgograd.
Due to poor health, doctors advised Eugene to go in for sports, the choice was stopped on figure skating. In February 1987, 4-year-old Plushenko went to the section, where Tatyana Skala became his coach. Already in early childhood, the first significant achievements awaited him: the mentor led the 7-year-old figure skater to the first prize - "Crystal Skate".
The answer is in the photo on the right! As a child, Zhenya often caught cold and his parents decided that there was no better place for hardening than ...
Then Mikhail Makoveev drew attention to the promising child. And when the ice arena where the young man trained was closed, Makoveev did not abandon the student and took him to St. Petersburg to introduce him to Alexei Mishin. Plushenko had to show all her talent to impress. He succeeded, and at the age of 12, Evgeny was accepted into the team, where he trained with Alexei Yagudin.
Zhenya was left completely alone in a strange city, which at first did not have much sympathy for the young skater. Plushenko lived in a small dorm room and was torn between training and school. Soon my mother moved in with her son, and life began to improve. Father and sister remained in Volgograd.
fact
Personal life
The skater registered his first marriage in 2005, his wife was Maria Yermak, a student of the sociological faculty of St. Petersburg State University. In 2006, the son of Evgeni Plushenko was born, who was named Egor. The athlete's relationship with his wife was not developing in the best way when he met Yana.
The fateful meeting between Evgeni Plushenko and Yana Rudkovskaya took place in January 2007. A spark flashed between them, but before finding each other, the lovers had to overcome a lot of obstacles, including divorce proceedings. Yana filed for a divorce from Viktor Baturin, and Eugene - with his first wife.

The couple was brought together by joint preparation for Eurovision-2008, where Rudkovskaya was the producer of Dima Bilan. Plushenko performed on a specially prepared artificial ice stage for him, and violinist Edwin Marton played the violin. Later, Eugene performed more than once to the accompaniment of a musician.
The wedding took place on September 12, 2009, and on January 6, 2013, a son, Alexander, was born in the family. It is interesting that Dima Bilan became the boy's godfather. In September 2017, the couple got married in the Moscow church of St. Nicholas on Three Mountains.
What is now happening between him and his son Yegor, Eugene calls "constructive dialogue", although the eldest son and the youngest rarely communicate. Plushenko hopes that everything will change in the future, but for now, there is no need to force events. For the children of Yana, the skater, without at all claiming to be the father, became a close friend.
Evgeni Plushenko: "My son Yegor is growing up as a real man" The famous skater has published a rare video with the eldest heir. http://www.radiodacha.ru/news/73227.htm # EvgenyPlyushchenko
The family spends most of the time in their own house on Rublevka, this is a 3-storey mansion with a total area of 1,000 square meters. m. In addition to bedrooms and bathrooms, there is a gym, swimming pool and hockey rink. But the garage, where all Plushenko's cars are, is distinguished by a special size. Eugene has repeatedly admitted that he has a passion for cars.
Yana herself was engaged in the arrangement of the house, the design was made in light shades, the couple ordered interior items and furniture from Germany and Italy. But this is not the only property of the star couple. They also have apartments in Moscow and St. Petersburg, a house in the Northern capital and housing in Sochi.

Figure skating
After a year of hard training, the skater took 6th place at the Russian Championship among juniors. At the age of 14, before Cupof Russia, he felt back pain, despite which he still participated in competitions and took 4th place, leaving adult skaters behind. These were the first, but far from the last, back problems for Plushenko.
Thanks to complete dedication, the personal achievements box began to be replenished with new awards - a bronze medal of the Russian championship, a silver of the European championship and the 3rd place of the world championship.
Around the same time, his close friend and colleague Alexei Yagudin begins to train with Tatyana Tarasova, and a rivalry begins between the two skaters. For the first time on ice, they met in 1998 at the World Championships. Then Plushenko took 3rd place, and Yagudin managed to win the gold medal.
EVGENY PLYUSHCHENKO AND MARIA ERMAK Although the first marriage of the famous skater lasted almost three years, quarrels and conflicts began ...
However, Eugene's grandiose victories were still ahead. In the next season, the athlete won gold medals in many prestigious competitions, including the European and Russian championships. Zhenya is the first skater to complete a cascade of a quadruple toe loop - triple toe loop - triple rittberger, a combination of triple axel - oiler - triple flip.
After Plushenko, singles taller than Evgeny's (178 cm with a weight of 72 kg) began to try to insert similar elements into their own programs. It turned out that physical parameters are not the main obstacle in the development of multi-turn jumps.
In 2002, Eugene was to participate in the Salt Lake City Olympics. Due to injuries, Plushenko takes 2nd place at the Grand Prix and abandons the European Championship in order to better prepare for the Games. It seemed that evil fate was hanging over the skater. He fell in the first box office, but was able to take a silver medal from Salt Lake City in terms of total points.
Olympic champions of different years: Yuzuru Hanyu and Evgeni Plushenko.
The next year became a triumphant one for the skater: longtime rival Alexei Yagudin left the big sport. Zhenya takes 1st place in the World Championship, repeating this victory in 2004. It is noteworthy that that year gave Eugene 4 scores 6.0 for artistry in a free program. But the championship of the planet in 2005, Plushenko had to be missed due to injury.
The 2006 Olympics became much more successful for Zhenya. In the short program, Evgeny Plushenko completed all 8 elements absolutely without mistakes, for which he received the highest mark, setting a world record, and an advantage over his rivals of 11 points. The free program was also excellent. As a result, Plushenko won gold in Turin, 27 points ahead of the silver medalist.
This was Evgeny's best performance. After this tournament, Plushenko announced a pause in his sports career to recover from his injuries, and the old ones were making themselves felt.

He returned to the ice in 2009 but found himself in an awkward position at the 2010 Vancouver Olympics. Having taken the 2nd place, he climbed to his step on the podium through the center intended for the winner. Plushenko later explained his act by the bias of the judges, who gave the gold medal to Evan Lysacek.
Zhenya's further career was full of surprises, which is again associated with injuries. Participation in the 2010 world championship was canceled on the recommendation of doctors. 2012 brought the skater the European Championship, but a back injury prevented him from continuing to participate in the season. During that period, Plushenko underwent a complex operation in Israel - the replacement of an intervertebral disc with an artificial one.
The 2014 Sochi Olympics turned out to be both a sensation and a failure for Eugene. His participation in the home Games was questioned. Many believed that Maxim Kovtun would take to the ice, but Plushenko was called up to the national team. In the team tournament, he scored 91.39 points, ahead of the reigning world champion Patrick Chan, but losing 1st place to the Japanese Yuzur Hanyu.

The second place to Zhenya was brought by the short program of the team tournament, and in the free program he was the best and brought the Russian team victory in the team competition, becoming a two-time Olympic champion. On February 13, Plushenko was to participate in the individual championship. However, due to back problems, Eugene withdrew from the competition just a minute before the start. As it turned out later, one of the screws broke in his spine, which was used to secure the previously installed artificial intervertebral disc.
After the operation in Israel, Yevgeny Plushenko, despite the earlier statements about the end of his career, announced that in the summer of 2014 he would continue training and work on his own ice project.
In March 2017, Evgeni Plushenko announced the end of his sports career, explaining that with age he no longer had the strength to compete with a new generation of skaters who had already achieved high skill. In addition, he recalled that in all his sports activities, he underwent 15 complex operations.
Then the man did not rule out that he would go to Pyeongchang, where the 2018 Winter Olympics were held, only as a coach.
fact
Social activity
Paying attention to the development of sports, Evgeny also participates in the public life of the country. From 2007 to 2011, Plushenko was a deputy from the Fair Russia party in the Legislative Assembly of St. Petersburg. In addition, he is a member of the organizing committee for the preparation of the application of the city of Sochi for the 2014 Olympics.
In the 2018 presidential elections in Russia, Plushenko, along with Tatyana Tarasova, Ilya Averbukh, Elena Isinbayeva and Tatyana Navka, became a member of a group of confidants of Vladimir Putin.
The FIFA World Cup, which took place in Russia, also did not go without Plushenko. This time, Zhenya has been appointed ambassador of Sochi as the host city of the World Cup.
fact
School and ice shows
A loud statement about Evgeny's departure from sports was made a week before the opening of his own figure skating academy, where children from three years old were accepted. In the first days of the ice school, which was named "Plushenko's Angels", it turned out that 1 lesson in a group cost 2 thousand rubles. Photos and videos of young athletes' rentals are periodically published on Instagram by the famous founder of the educational institution.
Evgeny pays special attention to the popularization of figure skating. In 2015, together with his wife Yana Rudkovskaya, the athlete presented the show "The Snow King", in which he played the role.

A year later, the Nutcracker show appeared, where holographic technologies were used for the first time in the world. In 2017, the Vienna Symphony Orchestra took part in the updated ice musical, using modern special effects, bright sets and costumes.
Then the skater continued to experiment with combining his favorite sport with other areas of art. In 2018, Eugene prepared the Swan Lake project, in which ice skating elements are combined with ballet. Modern technologies made it possible to change the space of the stage, the magical mood of the fairy tale was conveyed by the symphony orchestra.
Evgeny presented another ice show "Cinderella" with Yana Rudkovskaya by the end of 2019. Plushenko went on the ice with his son Alexander, and besides them, Olympic champions of Sochi Adelina Sotnikova and Yulia Lipnitskaya were attracted to participate in the project.
fact
Scandals
Being a public person, Plushenko often comes under a barrage of criticism from subscribers on Instagram and other Internet users. So, not everyone appreciated the desire of Yana and Eugene to call their son Dwarf Dwarf, considering this nickname a mockery of the child. Moreover, little Sasha has a page on Instagram under this name too. It is obvious that Rudkovskaya is communicating with subscribers on his behalf.
Eugene also has misunderstandings in sports. An example of this is Plushenko's online skirmish with coach Eteri Tutberidze, which flared up in the second half of 2019. It all started with Alina Zagitova's performance on the Vremya program, where the girl announced the suspension of her career. Plushenko spoke about this situation. He did not say anything specific, but noted that in order for her desire to practice to return, the athlete needs to devote more time. The skater hinted that Alina might want to change her coach.

The coaching staff of "Khrustalny" reacted negatively to his words, accusing Evgeny of trying to take the skater to his own group. Plushenko's answer was not long in coming, the skater explained that he does not buy athletes, stressing that children come to Khrustalny only with the ability to do triple jumps, that is, ready-made athletes, and not “grown up” on their own. Zagitova put an end to this conflict, answering that she was not going to end her career, but simply took a break and intends to continue working with the former coaches.
A new scandal around Plushenko's name erupted in January 2020. Information appeared in the press that the finalist of the TV project "People's Artist - 3" and the performer of folk songs Marina Devyatova allegedly told the media in an interview about an affair with the skater. Judging by the news, they met at the ceremony of choosing a city for the Winter Olympic Games, where Yevgeny was the ambassador of the Sochi bid. Maria performed the song "Katyusha" as a guest artist. After the event, they met for a while, but their relationship ended as quickly as it began.

When asked by reporters, Eugene said that he did not know this woman at all. At the same time, Devyatova published a post in which she stated that this information was not true, she never spoke about the affair with Plushenko to the press. Yes, they crossed paths at the specified event, but, according to the woman, they did not have a close acquaintance.
And after that, the press began to discuss the Plushenko family with renewed vigor, this time because of the publication of the Starhit magazine, which cited the opinion of a defectologist regarding the mental health of the figure skater's son, diagnosing him in absentia - Asperger's syndrome, as evidenced by the child's glassy gaze ... Rudkovskaya did not tolerate this and wrote an angry letter to the publishers of the magazine, personally appealing to Natalya Shkuleva with a demand to remove the article.
The reaction was belated, only after some time they apologized to Yana, but the article did not disappear from the site. Then Rudkovskaya officially announced that she would not allow her to speak negatively about her child and now intends to sue the publication.

Evgeni Plushenko now
Despite the protracted quarantine, which began in March 2020 due to the coronavirus pandemic, Plushenko continues to work, although he had to move most of the work to the "remote". So, in May, it became known about the transfer to his team of Alexandra Trusova, who had previously worked with Tutberidze. Evgeny officially confirmed that the process of submitting documents for the transfer of the skater has begun.
This situation did not go unnoticed by Alexei Zheleznyakov, who worked as an invited specialist at Khrustalny with Eteri Georgievna's group. He compared Trusova's act to a knife stuck in her back and advised Eugene to turn to Tutberidze for help in creating productions for Alexandra.
Plushenko continues to work hard and train the athletes who join his group.
